Imho melt the package be lucky by getting one of those cheap starter packs, buy a p-72 then upgrade that to a Reliant
$30 starter package, $30 P-72(LTI), $20 upgrade to Reliant, Think that works Ok you have to add $5
I have negative money to toss at this game, but I am not willing to give up the Reliant. I will just have a few bucks waiting for me to be able to put more into it for a game package again.
What they've said about CCU'ING up to reliant might be a better option. Than just giving up a package. Then you can maybe pick up a p-52 just to still have something pilotable. Once 2.0 goes live for everyone you won't really NEED a ship if you can get in on someone's multi crew.
I've been kicking around the idea of melting my cutlass package and picking up a starter package and a cheap lti. Don't think I'll make it to get a $30 package.
Or, if you are not worried about LTI, or the 3 year ins, just grab an Aurora or Mustang package, then CCU to a Reliant, you should have enough credits for that.
